Wishing you all a wonderful and safe holiday!
Thank you all for your hard work, dedication and positive attitudes every day!!
I loved reading everyone’s comments on what inspires them to lead a healthy lifestyle. For this week’s homework, I want to hear from you again! This holiday season we have been giving thanks and showing our appreciation to everyone that has made an impact on our journey. Now it is time to give thanks to YOU!
It is so easy to get caught up in appearances and looking good that sometimes we forget what an amazing machine the human body really is. I used to always focus on the appearance of my “thunder thighs” and would dispense entirely too much energy trying to hide the flaws that really only mattered to me. It was not until I started running, especially long distances, that I came to hold my thighs in an entirely new light. I am thankful for the power, speed and strength they have that can get me through the different races and obstacles I encounter. I was and am guilty of focusing too much on image and not embracing the awesome capabilities our bodies possess. Now it’s your turn! I want to know what part of your body you are thankful for and why (try to keep it PG 
).
The holiday’s are here – parties, potlucks and happy hours are in full swing! With all of the temptations around, it can be hard to stay healthy. Below are some tips to help you stay trim while staying social.

Navigating the Buffet:
Be sure to also continue with your workouts throughout the holidays! Schedule workouts the day you go out and the day after – this will help you not over-do it on the drinks or the buffet!

With the new year approaching, we start to think about resolutions and wanting to kick up our workout routines. We may decide to up our mileage or our weight-lifting routine, which is great, but our enthusiasm may get the best of us. Doing too much too soon often leads to injury. The key is to gradually increase the amount and type of exercise you are doing. You would not go from sitting on the couch to running a 10k overnight, and in the same respect you cannot go from lifting weights or running twice a week to an everyday occurrence.
Some important tips to remember as you start to amp up your exercise routine:
A lot of these may seem like common sense, but it is easy to skip or forget some of the basics, especially if you have not worked out in awhile. Keep these tips in mind as you gradually build up the intensity in your workouts, rather than let an injury prevent you from working out at all.
SAVE THE DATE!!
